About This Course

DBT works from the premise that out-of-control behaviors often occur because clients do not have other, less problematic behavioral skills in their repertoire. The focus of this training will be on describing the principles and strategies of DBT and providing a shared knowledge of who does what in DBT, how each of the modes of the treatment work together and how providers use the strategies in DBT to help clients change their behaviors and create lives worth living.

2. Describe which clients are treated in DBT programs;
3. Identify the modes of treatment in standard DBT;
4. Explain the purpose of chain analysis in DBT;
5. Discuss the rationale for timing validation strategies;
